Aim- Nanomaterials of structure as shown
The emulsion with thin layers of third substanceat the surface between oil and water
The structure of nanomaterial after removingwater and oil
Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Liquid – an ensemble of molecules
Interaction between molecules
Electrostatic interaction van der Waals interaction
Coulomb potential Lennard - Jones potential
The program „Moldy” by Keith Refson used for simulation.

Conclusions
•The molecular dynamics seems to be the best tool to simulate physicalprocesses on a nanoscale in liquids.
•Formation of water droplet in vacuum and oil droplet in water havebeen simulated successfully.
•The use of soap as a substance, which would concentrate at theinterface between water and oil has been tested.
•Good results were obtained only for soaps with long hydrophobic partof the molecule.
•Now we look for solid substances, which would stay at the surface of the droplets and would not mix with oil..
